The Nordic Gawd

why.... would they make it completly out of rosewood besides pump up the price.

I'll just need to make the neck... really, really, thin in order to reach the bottom string properly. oh god i shudder just thinking about trying to play some nice bassey riffs on the bottom few strings.

the 8 suits me almost perfectly for my jazz. perfectly suitable for metal but i like jazz. plus i can incorporate some slap funk in thar.

lol do they speak german?

thanks for the link to the p/us but i dont know how to read german!

the jazz certainly doesn't scream nearly as much as the dimebucker. Maybe you should go a step up on the output level to blend a little better. They had a modified Gibson with a Jazz Neck and Dime Bridge I loved the dime and jazz separate but when blended it was two different worlds. I had to turn the tone down all the way one one end and all the way up on the other just to get a decent sound. I'd reccomend something a step up. the jazz gets super clean and the dime gets pretty clean but always has that grit. I'd reccomend something a little more wound than a jazz.

yeah that was my original intention but I was kind of inspired by the "fanned" edges tutorial and wanted to incorporate something like that into my design.

I was thinking for the carriburst competition i would use a see through paint or something thats tinted. do these come in aerosol i believe it was mentioned somewhere in this forum.

TRANSLUCENTS THATS THE NAME are there any translucent aerosols? because i dont have a spray gun or a compressor.

not my taste. but if thats what you're looking for the more power to ya! remember that process can be done with acrylic mirror. better yet. why not just plate the body with it.

oh.... that hurts. elementary concepts.... belittle me why dont you! just kidding. no i need to get a copy.

yeah the inlay on the truss rod kicks too!

welcome to the FORUMS! why would the neck be at an angle? And what type of bridge are we talking about? by raised do you mean like a stop tail bridge piece, or a tremelo. I'm not quite understanding why you would have the neck on a slant. The headstock is usually on an angle not the neck. explain a little more then we can help! WELCOME!

i would love to do a burst like that but i have NO experiance with this stuff. unless its from a can. then i have a TON. because I was god of case finishes but that has nothing to do with guitars so ill shut up now

mmmmmmm 2 5-way switches. I WONDER!? i love that top!

WOW! thats a PRS?! I have a newfound respect! how much is it though........oh sh** here comes the disrespect

well folks caddying finally paid off. i got my long awaited korg px4 2 days ag. IMO i think that this site should have a review page off of the main index. Because this thing is so good for 200. There are a bunch of cool effects. and a bunch of pityfully laughable ones. but there are some extraordinary ones. I.E piezo presetting. The cleanest sounds i've ever heard from a guitar. There are some great o/d settings too. the amp settings are decent. It definately has a learning curve to it. but for 200 who CARES! its cheap and you get some spiffy tones out of it so i'd recommend it to anyone who wants a cheap multifx-tuner-metronome-amp mimicker thingy...etc.

maybe make an acrylic topped guitar. but hammer it so that it "breaks" do it while the plastic is still on the acrylic so it all stays together. then i'd recomend boiling the acrylic in stuff called like LYE or something like that. It's a dye for plastics. just boil it in the pot and keep checking it every few minutes until you get desired color. hopefully the pieces still stay together. or maybe just crack it after boiling. lol. then if you wanted to you could sandblast it for a really cool look and inlay the acrylic and keep the remaining wood borders as a really cool like "natural binding" hell you could even put space in between the acrylic and paint the space like black or something. so it would REALLY look like a cracked mirror. IMHO.

dude. i make awesome logos. ill send you a couple if you want.

rhoads just to let you know i love your work and i have a question? is the deep tenon really that much harder to do? and does it pay off?

BTW i love the carriburst 3rd from the top!

i like the idea of having 1 high and one low. It'll make everything so much easier. no more reaching up on super high frets to make the piano. oh good lord yes!

no way really? i cant imagine vai ****ing up! Him and malmsteen seem awful perfect. Messing up to me is definately not the worst thing, it just lets you know this guy ain't a robot. But i agree with you about satch

looks decent. but kind of stupid. would look better lit.

thats a little extreme.

ill check them out my friend likes them and has a few cds of theirs

on brians site. no offense at all to brian. universal jems is a GREAT site and i go all the time. I just need something a little cheaper. i know ill check out my local radioshack.
